Ike, Great call. I took advantage of dip in the morning to get some AOL calls. When so much noise was made during weekend and everybody knows it is CPQ's poor execution there is no need to panic in this earnings sail helped by the favourable economic wind. Hope all are doing fine at that end. OT: Did you see the political drama in India? Agni launch and now BJP is paying price for joining hands with unstable and lunatics characters like fat lady from Madras. -Nat

Ike, Congratulations on a great day! Have been reading your reports for several months now and have great respect for your approach to the market. Received some funds today on sale of properties and would like to use it to establish long term, core positions. So many different ways to go, but you I trust and would appreciate your advice and recommendations. Good wishes, Charley

Ike, respectfully and beautifully said...the following makes me think... >"Our Life's Partner" > >Wishing to encourage her young son's progress on the piano, a mother >took >her boy to a Paderewski concert. After they were seated, the mother >spotted a >friend in the audience and walked down the aisle to greet her. > >Seizing the opportunity to explore the wonders of the concert hall, the >little boy rose and eventually explored his way through a door marked >"NO >ADMITTANCE." > >When the house lights dimmed and the concert was about to begin, the >mother returned to her seat and discovered that the child was missing. >Suddenly, the curtains parted and spotlights focused on the impressive >Steinway on stage. In horror, the mother saw her little boy sitting at >the >keyboard, innocently picking out "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star." > >At that moment, the great piano master made his entrance, quickly moved >to the piano and whispered in the boy's ear, "Don't quit. Keep >playing." >Then leaning over, Paderewski reached down with his left hand and began >filling in a bass part. Soon his right arm reached around the other >side of the child and he added a running obligato. > >Together, the old man and the boy enjoyed a wonderfully creative >experience. >The audience was mesmerized. > >That's the way it is with God. What we can accomplish on our own is >hardly noteworthy. We try our best, but the results aren't exactly >graceful >flowing music.
